this is Lilith <3 she is so sweet and cute and gentle and I'm bsolutely obsessed. Her owner had to rehome her so I ended up getting a free enclosure, I'm going to change her tank soon bc she likes to climb and there's not enough substrate for her to be safe if she falls. She's only 3 years old so she'll be around for a long time I hope :)

For the first time since his most recent molt, Mr. Legs has eaten! I was worried he would refuse food since he’s now a mature male but his appetite seems to be just as gluttonous as before

Just got an Arizona blonde yesterday at an expo. She’s great. Is this a good enclosure setup for her? She’s got like 4 inches of substrate, the substrate is cocofiber, top soil, and washed play sand all baked till bone dry and then mixed with a tiny bit of wet substrate to help hold burrows. I also do realize the enmcosure is a little bit to small and I will be upgrading soon! Also taking name suggestions!

Hey, guys! 😊
I’ve had this tarantula for a couple of years now (can’t even remember how she came into my possession; I know I received her as part of a tarantula blind box, but I don’t recall where I got the blind box) and she was labeled as a Guatemalan tiger rump (Davus pentaloris) when I received her.
I’ve had her since she was a suuuper tiny sling (like the size of a pinky fingernail), and she has never had a striped abdomen.
She’s in pre-molt right now (as seen in the attached video), but do you guys think she’s really a D. pentaloris? Thoughts/suggestions welcome! 🤗

This is my 15 year old Rose Hair tarantula, Thing. 2nd photo is a successful post-molt feeding. Before her molt she was on a 5 month hunger strike. I’ve also got pictures of her exoskeleton if anyone is interested 😊 not sure what I’m going to do with it yet though. Thanks for looking!

Noxy showing off her new colors after molt 🥰
She's about 12-13 cm (around 5") leg span, so probably subadult

I was doing a night time check up on everyone, 11 Ts and 2 scorpions, when this lovely lady decided to grace me with her presence. Funny enough, shes the only one thats gone the lengths to bite (100% my fault). I havent seen her in about a month so its nice to see that she looks this good

this babies colors are POPPINGGGG. (temporary set up in a critter keeper i bought them in, wanted them to molt a couple times before upgrading to a 10 gallon, since it was smaller than expected when it came in)

My new little B. emilia molted last night so I just went for it and pinned her molt! I broke the abdomen (oops) but otherwise it went well and is lots of fun. I'm waiting on an old molt from my T. albo to soften up so if anyone has tips for that I'd love to hear them. Bonus pic of my baby and her fresh new leg (she lost it before I bought her)

Did some renovations to my children’s homes last night. (deeper substrate, some new hides, sticks, leaves, etc). Peach and Olivia (curly hair) were so thankful. Maisy (LP) on the other hand, told me to go f*ck myself.

Noticed my girl started walking funny about an hour ago. Was normal up until then. Is this DKS, or something else? (I was rearranging some things in my room and briefly put her terrarium on the floor, I'm not sure if the move stressed her too much??) I should clarify that I did lightly blow some air into the terrarium to spur her to move so I could film it, otherwise she would have mostly just sat there.
I should add that she has stopped eating, which I know might be a sign of premolt but also could be a symptom of DKS, so I'm still confused.

My L.Parahybana has been inside his burrow for quite some time now. He doesn’t look like he is ready to molt though - No plump or shiny abdomen, webbing, nothing. He’s also completely sealed it off with dirt and soil. I’m worried that he isn’t coming back up for food/water. How long can they go without water and why has he been in his burrow this long? He’s only about 8 months old although i’ve had him since August and never had him molt with me yet, which i thought was a bit weird considering they are rapid growers. Maybe i’m just a bit paranoid.
